There's not any longer a local municipal government, but it's a constituency of the national Parliament. Throughout the short-lived 1950s-1960s Federation of the British West Indian Territories, Bridgetown was one of three capital cities within the region being considered to be the Federal capital of region.The present-day location of town was established by English settlers in 1628; a previous settlement under the authority of Sir William Courten was at St. James Town. Bridgetown is a major West Indies tourist destination, and the city acts as an important financial, informatics, conference centre, and cruise ship port of call in the Caribbean region. On 25 June 2011,"Historical Bridgetown and its Garrison" was added as a World Heritage Site of UNESCO.
